Find Him And Kill Him / The Dream Is Dead Summer Tour 2002 Split EP (2002 Happy Couples Never Last Recordings)

Find Him And Kill Him / The Dream Is Dead (Vinyl, 7") album cover


FHAKH  were a San Diego thrashcore band named after a brief gag in one of the funniest movies ever. I first saw them in 02 (different tour) at the Che Cafe opening for Down In Flames and Scholastic Deth (the DIF set is posted here). I was blown away and immediately started kicking myself for not knowing enough of what was going down in my adopted hometown (which continues on a regular basis to this day). "The Big Takeover" is not a Bad Brains cover, btw.

The Dream is Dead were from Indiana, and played a slower, more tortured hardcore. One original, and Demonomania is really a Misfits cover. The Final Nail is about animal liberation, but who would have ever thunk some of the lyrics could apply to human children in the U.S.?

Until the last cage stands open, none of us are free
Where is their reprieve? Have we really come so far? 
Does their pain earn them no consideration?
All guilt, put aside. All compassion, put aside.
